              <text>This photograph captures a group of incoming students gathered near the George Mason statue during orientation events. Often one of their first encounters with a key campus symbol, the statue serves as a welcoming landmark that fosters a sense of belonging and tradition. The image emphasizes how the statue is woven into the student experience from the very beginning, establishing a shared connection that endures throughout their time at the university.</text>
